"Youyou, what are we going to do? You won't be able to support your father, Lian Jin, in his old age."
Nan Zhi, somewhat amused, rested her chin on her hand, tapped the table with one hand, and stared at Lin Youyou.
Lin Youyou was also troubled. After hearing this, she didn't know either. After pondering for a while, Lin Youyou's eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Nan Zhi and Qin Xi'er with sparkling eyes and said, "I can have my child support him in his old age."
Nanzhi: "..."
"Pfft!" Qin Xi'er spat out the tea she had just drunk.
Staring wide-eyed at Lin Youyou in disbelief, I thought to myself, "My God, what's inside Lin Youyou's head?" I had an urge to open her head.
A strange look flashed in Nan Zhi's eyes. Having children take care of you in your old age is not a bad idea.
"Youyou, what are you really thinking?"
Qin Xier took out a tissue and wiped her mouth, looking helpless.
Lin Youyou: That's exactly what I think. Think about it, I can't take care of my dad in his old age, so I'll have my son treat him like a grandfather. Wouldn't that be great?
As she spoke, Lin Youyou looked completely satisfied, as if to say that the idea was simply perfect.
Qin Xi'er: "......"
She glanced helplessly at Nanzhi, shrugged, and said, "I can't reason with her. You can do it."
Nan Zhi smiled, then said nothing to Lin Youyou, but instead spoke:
“Xi’er, when you see your cousin today, say this: ‘Lin Youyou said that when you get old, she will also get old. After thinking it over, she felt that she couldn’t take care of you in your old age, so she finally came up with a new method: her children will take care of you in your old age.’ Remember, it would be best to record a video when you say this. I want to see what your cousin’s expression is like.”
Qin Xi'er nodded repeatedly, remembering what Nan Zhi said so she could use it effectively later.
"Then pause for a moment, and continue saying, 'Finally, Lin Youyou has decided that her child will treat you as a grandfather, so don't worry. After recording the video, run away as soon as possible.'"
Qin Xi'er was taken aback. "Why are you running?"
Nan Zhi smiled and said, "Just listen to me. Are you going to wait for him to beat you up if you don't run?"
After listening to Nan Zhi's account, Lin Youyou nodded smugly, "Not bad, not bad, there's nothing wrong with this passage. Don't worry about me not taking care of him in his old age, I'll have children too."
Nan Zhi couldn't help but laugh out loud. She really wanted to see Lian Jin's expression; it would be very interesting.
"Zhizhi, what are you laughing at?"
"No, I just think you're a grateful and good child, Youyou, and I'm happy."
After saying that, she turned to Qin Xier and said, "You must remember to secretly record a video."
Qin Xi'er nodded, "I will. I'll send it to you as soon as I've recorded it."
The food was served in no time. The three of us didn't order much. The taste here is just like the old Beijing style, and it was really good.
"Burp, I'm full."
Lin Youyou patted her bulging belly and let out a burp.
"It's because you ate too much before." Qin Xi'er glanced at her with disdain. Given Lin Youyou's usual personality, how could she have only eaten this much?
Lin Youyou scratched her head sheepishly and stood up. "You two eat, I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, she turned and left. Nan Zhi and Qin Xi'er continued eating, and she didn't plan to eat again when she got back tonight.
About five minutes later, Lin Youyou returned. She carefully closed the door, looking mysterious.
"Guess who I just saw?"
Qin Xi'er rolled her eyes. "Lian Chuchu, huh?"
Lin Youyou shook her head, "No, it's the new head of the Gu family who's eating here too."
"Oh, it's him." Qin Xi'er showed no interest, and Lin Youyou immediately felt bored as well.
Nan Zhi lowered her eyes, pondered for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on her lips. What a coincidence! Could it be that Gu Ying, like in the book, has been captured by Lian Chuchu?
But that doesn't make sense. Even so, Lian Chuchu has never agreed. Instead, she's been all lovey-dovey with Lin Feifan. How could she possibly sneak here to meet Gu Ying?
Nanzhi couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried, so she finally gave up on thinking about it. As long as she had this direction, that was enough.
Nan Zhi had just put down her chopsticks when the phone rang. It was Shen Xingmian calling.
He pressed the answer button, and Shen Xingmian's magnetic, deep, and pleasant voice came from the other end:
"There?"
Nanzhi reported her location.
"Grandpa told us to go back, I've come to pick you up."
Nan Zhi: "..." It seems Xu Yao has already gone home.
She smiled slightly. "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Nanzhi glanced at the two women, who remained silent, and said, "Let's go after we finish eating."
The three of them went directly to the place they had agreed to meet with Shen Xingmian.
Shen Xingmian arrived in less than twenty minutes and first took Lin Youyou to her destination.
Lian Jin has an apartment outside, but since Lian Chuchu returned to the Lian family, he has basically stopped going back.
Qin Xi'er went directly to Lian Jin's apartment, intending to deliver the items to him before going home, since it was quite close by.
Before leaving, Namzhi gave him another instruction:
"You must tell him exactly what I say, okay?"
Qin Xi'er gave an OK sign, "Don't worry, I still remember the recording."
Nanzhi clenched her fist and encouraged her, "Go for it!"
Qin Xi'er scratched her head. "Aoli Gei? What does that mean?"
Nanzhi explained with a smile, "It means to cheer you on."
She almost forgot that the word "Aoli Gei" was not mentioned in the novel.
"Hey, this is quite interesting." Qin Xi'er's eyes lit up slightly, and she smiled.
As the car continued driving, Nanzhi couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Shen Xingmian: "......"
"Shen Xingmian, you have no idea how hilarious Lin Youyou was today. Let me tell you, it went on and on..."
After hearing Nan Zhi's words, Shen Xingmian couldn't help but smile.
"Did you go shopping with Xu Yao today?"
Nan Zhi's smile vanished instantly. "Yeah, this person is really annoying. The three of us have been her laborers for a long time. But, hehe, I won't let her get away with this either."
Shen Xingmian: "......"
It was indeed a tough time; Xu Yao was being watched like a monkey.
The goods she bought were lying on the ground around her, and passersby looked at her strangely, making Xu Yao feel extremely ashamed and indignant.
Xu Jingzhi was in the middle of a business meeting, and by the time he arrived, an hour had passed. Xu Yao was crying uncontrollably, and of course, she embellished Nan Zhi's story, also mentioning their bullying tactics.
So, Xu Jingzhi took Xu Yao to relax for a long time before going to the Shen family, intending to let Old Master Shen make the decision.
Xu Yao originally didn't plan to tell Xu Jingzhi that Nan Zhi was asked by Old Master Shen to accompany her, because if she did, he would know that Shen Xingmian's girlfriend was Nan Zhi.
